about

This is an emotional piece for me, done in five separate parts, that conjoin into one vibrant whole.

In early 2012 my grandmother died. Though I had been very close with her in my youth, and I had seen her less and less after I moved from my parent's home. Still, she had seemed like a constant figure in my life. I always assumed I could go back and see her whenever I'd like.

Her death left me with a strange feeling, to think I could never see her again. I was reminded of having this same feeling back when I was a teenager, when my grandfather, her husband, whom I had also been very close with, died. I felt very empty. For some reason the repeated theme of the Addams Family movie returned to my mind over and over. There was no connection, but it was a beautiful piece to me and it linked to the faded beauty of their lives.

I made this album with them in mind, and it is to them this is dedicated. I would like to think their spirits waltz together again somewhere in the cosmos.

Meat Force

Soundscape, horror, a rottenness found under every rock, in every heart. Plus some dance beats and slowed down Madonna sometimes.
